Dear stuent 
Initial and final velocities along the horizontal direction and vertical direction are :
ux = ucos60 
uy = usin60 
vx = vcos45 
vy = vsin45 
Using v = u + at 
ay = -9.8m/s^2 
ax = 0 m/s^2 
Vx = ux + axt 
v = u/√2 ........ (1)
Along vertical direction 
Vy = uy + ayt 
v/√2 = u√3/2 - 9.8t 
Put this in equation 1 
and find the vaue of t 
t = 3.73 sec 
h = uyt + 0.5ayt^2 
h = 18.43 m
Hope this helps
Good Luck

let after time t its inclination with horizontal is 45

   at this time Vy /Vx =tan45  or Vy =Vx 

    Vx remains constant =100cos60 =Vy 

    now using equation of motion for verticle direction 

   Vy=Uy-gt..........eq1

   Uy=100sin60 ,Uy=100cos60 

 putting in eq 1, 

    you can find t
